His atten tion was chiefly direeled to a party consisting of the prisoner and two others. He allowed them to com mit some depredations of a more trivial kind, till, observing the ,whole three press `hard on a young man whom they had surrounded, he followed them more closely, and soon perceived the prisoner draw in lai's hand with a watch in it.Phe Gentleman then, as the best way of sew, ing the prisoner, seized him by the hand in which he held the watch;and calling out at the same time, the watch was claimed-by:the young man whom he had seen pressed .on ,by the prisoner and his coMpanions. Two or three officers who then eßtmlbp, were extremely anxious to take charge of the prisotier, but the gentleman refused to lose sight of him till he had seen him safely lodged, A young. lad of the name .of Lennon, proved the watch to be his,• and that he had not discovered the theft till the alarntwas given by the.gentleman. • The prisoner said he had gone with a friend to see the procession, but had lost him at the other end of St Paul's Church-yard. Observing a crowd, he Went,up to see what was the matter, tvhen the watch in ' question was puiheil into his hand.

Wednesday 35,0 Gentlemen sat, down to dinner at Merchant Taylors' Hall, in celebration of the both anniversary of his •Majesty's accession. The dinner, which was at three guineas a-head, was provided by the Proprietors of the City of London Tav k ern.. The Grand Hall was laid out with four,tables in a longitudinal dire6lion, and at the head of the room was another cross•table, appropriated for the Nobi lity and persons of distinction who were present._... Th6:last was decorated in a manner that does credit to the artist; upon it was placed aitemple, formed of j 4 pillars of marble, which supported three large domes, ornamented with his Majesty's arms, naval and military 'hinnies, together with a portrait of his Majesty. On the top of the centre dome-was a large naval trophy, with the British standard, a main-sail, flags, &c. displayed, beneath which were anchors, cannons; &c. with various emblematic mottos-; the whole standing near 15 feet high, and about 27 feet long ; supported from the three domes .were three trophies, with his Majesty's portrait, and the emblems of justice, strength, and power, intermixed with artificial flowers and China figures, and tAe whole standing on land work, with devices appropriate to the day. • . . Mr. Beeston Long was in the Chair; - and he was supported by the Earl Camden, the Earl of West morland, Earl St.- Vincent, Earl Bathurst, Earl of -Liverpool, Lord Erskine, Lord Mulgrav,e, Mr. Per ceval, Mr. Canning, Mr. Rose, Lord Li. Gower, Mr. Long, Mr.' Ryder, &c. &c., Eon Dolis Domine was sung in a*very superior style, and the health , of his Most Gracious Majesty was introduced - by a' very appropriate address from the Chair, and received with the most enthusiastic and repeated bursts of acclamation. The Anthem of God Save the King, with 'several , new verses, Was song by the vocal, perforniers; and the following Song, -written for the occasion, was sung' by Mr. Taylor : To the Anacreontic Tune. 1 The day our lov'd Monarch ascended his throne, In mirth each true Briton should ever employ, But now fOrty-nine anniversaries gone, The fiftieth solemnity hallows our joy ! 'Tis a Jubilee. year, 'tis a festival dear To all who their King and Country revere. Our voices we'll raise, till the firmament ring,' With a loud loyal Churus of " God save the King! And well, at devotional gratitude's call, , Our bosoms, exulting, with bliss may expand, When the blessings bcProvidence destin'd for all Yet linger on earth but to gladden our land. While Europe' lair soil is of robbers the spoil, And force reaps the harvest of industry's toil, Our sea-guarded , isle unmolested. may sing Heaven prospers my sons, and may " Gad save the Kit* !" Religion, to guide and enlighten mankind, Here finds her asylum and fixes her sway, Where no superstition debases the mind, Nor black infidelity skulks frOm the day. :the sympathies here drop for mis'rra tear, And charity hastens its anguish to cheir ; ,Extra Ling fiont penury's wound the sharp sting. She bids all her tot'iies pray " God save the King." 'Where lustice, immaculate, sits on her bench, While an even pois'd balance determines her choice; No tyrannous edit her sentence to , wrench, No bribe to corrupt her deliberate voice. On twelve good men and true ever fa,sening het' view, To her suppliants alike she dispenses' their due'; And, :whP.n oik'd what on Britain these blessings should • bring, She points to the throne and shouts " Cod save the King." What leads Britain's sons, from pole to the pole, To trace o'er the globe their infallible way: That, where'er the winds whistle, whcre'er the waves roll, Both the waves and the winds their intentions obey ? ,'Tis Freedom divine wafts them over the line, Arid to them bids the earth all her treasures' resign ; •Secur'd by her arm, and upborne on her wing, They make the world cello with " God save the King ;" Dear Liberty'S tree, such as Englishmen sliew, All sappy its stem and mature all its fruit, Once France would have planted ; but how could it grow, With no leaf on its branches nor life at its root ? 'Tis to Britain alone this rare plant "can'be known, Its growth and its product exclusive her own ; Her manners' its autiamn, her virtues its spring, Her Monarchits sunshine: 0 " Godsave the King 1" Its seed by our ancestors early was sown, ' And the ground to upraise it manur'd with their blood; 'Tis our birth-right to watch now the tree,is full grown, Lest a blight crop its blossom, or a blast nip its bud, Corruption i s the light that its blossom would smite, And Faaion the blast that would strip it outright, Yet, while thus from concord our energies spring, _The crown of our wishes is " God sage the King;" Let all, then, who Britain's free Monarch obey, Their religion and liberties join to maintain, , Their country invites them to hallow this CIAY, When G aoR.GZ opes the fiftieth blest yqar oAis . reign. 'Tis a I übilee year, 'tis a festiVal dear, To all who their King and their Country revere Ourvoices we'll raise till the firmarnentring With a loud loyal chorus _of " God save the King !"
